This image depicts a multi-figure bronze sculpture, identified as "The Horse and its Companions" by Joe Fafard, situated indoors beside a large window. The sculpture is located within the Vancouver Public Library Central Branch in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. The primary figures of the sculpture include an elderly woman, a large horse, a small monkey, and a dog. The elderly woman, sculpted with a textured, weathered appearance and reddish-brown facial tones, stands prominently in the foreground, facing slightly left. She wears a head covering and what appears to be draped, textured clothing, holding a flat, stick-like object in her right hand, pointing downwards. Behind her stands a dark bronze horse, saddled, facing left. A small, monkey-like figure is perched on the rear of the horse's saddle, holding onto the saddle with its right hand. To the woman's right, on the sculpture's base, a small, shaggy-haired dog sits, looking upwards. The entire sculpture features a deliberately rough and textured surface. The background visible through the large window reveals an urban outdoor setting under an overcast sky. Bare deciduous trees with slender trunks are visible, suggesting a late autumn or winter season. Reflections of modern, multi-story glass buildings are discernible in the distance. A red bicycle with thick tires is parked outdoors, visible through the lower-left portion of the window. The indoor environment features a light-colored wall to the left and a concrete floor.
